Ten days after playing its last match in the disastrous Clasico lost at home (0-4), Real Madrid is back in business in its favorite competition. For its first match since 2010 against the transalpine team, and former club of its coach, Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid remained simple in its team composition.
Still convalescing, Thibaut Courtois must still give way to his Ukrainian counterpart, Andriy Lunin. In defense, no change also, Vazquez-Militao-Rüdiger-Mendy are also starters. In the middle, Tchouaméni, Valverde and Bellingham are present as is the eternal Luka Modrić, captain for the match. Finally, Kylian Mbappé and Vinicius Jr are back at the forefront of the attack.
